It's the network

At the Mike Ilitch School of Business, learning reaches far beyond the classroom. The business world is built through networking, and we give you ample opportunities to expand yours from your first day on campus. Join the Warriors Business Community, where you'll live and learn with like-minded peers, and be introduced to the Detroit business community through events on all scales, from special events like the North American International Auto Show preview to intimate breakfasts with alumni who can help you make connections. Or get matched with a local business leader through our Corporate Mentor Program and benefit from one-on-one mentoring for a full academic year. We also offer myriad student organizations matching the interests and drive of our business community.

Get ahead of the curve

Need help with your classes? Visit the Accounting Tutoring Lab for personalized learning sessions. High-performing juniors and seniors in most programs may be eligible for AGRADE, a program that applies select undergraduate credits toward a Wayne State M.B.A., allowing you to complete both a bachelor's and a master's with a substantial savings of time and tuition. And, our Computing and Technology staff runs a computing lab and provides software, technical advice, IT training and more.

Plan your path

The Mike Ilitch School of Business has a dedicated Career Planning and Placement staff to help you get to work. We can guide you through the process of landing an internship — or the perfect job.
